A member asked:

One of my legs and foot is colder than the other by touch. seems when it gets cold i have severe hip pain, and hard to keep sitting up?

See doctor soon: There are too many possibilities to consider. It could be a problem of the back or hip. Circulation should be evaluated as well.
